Sunday Blues

Why does Sunday seem to come so quickly?

So this past week has been crazy busy. I continued to unpack a bit, built a dresser....from Ikea.... yeah... You know those stories you hear about Ikea furniture?? totally.... TRUE! It was weird, it seemed simple, but for some reason was surprisingly difficult. It was an enigma! But alas, I got it finished and it's now holding a bunch of junk!!! YEAH!!!!

So this past week we had 2 staff meetings, 1 night of parent teacher, 1 Valentines Dance, 1 day of volunteering at a Basketball Tournament, 1 night of swimming, and 1 Saturday night party! Whew, I am tuckered...

The classes are going well. The kids are great. I think it's better because I have been with them since the beginning of this term, whereas last term I was their 5th teacher so there was no real structure in the classroom.  On Thursday I took one of my classes and we joined the same grade (different class) in the Foods room and made Colour Wheel Cookies! It was great. They all got a short intro on the colour wheel and then had to make it (primary, secondary, tertiary) using icing, and then arrange 12 cookies in the proper order. It was funny because I guess have more rules then the foods teacher so their normal class was not into me, lol. They were like, we never want her to teach us again.... lol... Whereas my class was like, You are our favorite teacher EVER! Oh Perspective....

So the party last Saturday night was amazing. I had such a great time. I met some great people and hung out with them again this weekend. In fact, myself and the hosts from the party last weekend went to another party together this weekend. It was nice, not quite the party from last weekend, but it was still nice to just get out and meet new people. I am really trying to establish a friend system here so I am trying to go to events and parties and mingle.

I also went swimming again on Friday. It was great, very few people, and the hot tub was free so we got a good 15 min of hot tub time...mmmm.... hot tubs.....

I also did some painting this past week. I did 2 paintings for an auction. I knew only one was going, but I can never just paint one... what if I hated it!!! So I did two and then let one of the organizers choose. I hope that someone bought it.... eeeeee..... I told a friend of mine that if no one bid on it, to at least bid 10 bucks and that I would pay him back, lol.

Well I guess that's it for another week.

6 down 20 to go...
